Might have a nibble on our lads having won the toss.

Because then there could actually be a cricket match. No one wants that.
They thought it wouldn't be necessary. I mean it's the West Indies, right? It's always hot there isn't it? Nice and sunny? It's not as if the average rainfall in Guyana in June is 320mm (compared to 60mm in England).
India were always going to play their semi at this ground, so flew here straight after their last win. All their fans knew where to book tickets and were able to book flights.
England didn't know where they would be playing until Tuesday No flights left, so no fans.
Stinks.

Topley skittles Kohli...
2.4 Topley to Kohli, OUT
Bowled 'im, straight through! Kohli's tough tournament continues as Topley pegs back leg stump. Another attempt to assert himself against the new ball but this was the perfect length, shaped back in as he heaved across the line, and flicked off the bails, to English delight. Just Topley's second wicket of the tournament
Virat Kohli b Topley 9 (9b 0x4 1x6) SR: 100

So they need to play 10 overs each for a result to be valid?

I think it's five. If it's abandoned India go through.
No, it’s 10 this time.
Why? To increase the chance of it being rained off and one side going through without needing a result?
Worst run sport in the world.

I think this is a rule for internal t20 generally, or world cup matches at least.
The sun is shining yet a little damp area on the outfield. Cricket let's itself down again this is a smash it game not a f***ing test match. Get out there.
Remember a few years ago at Hove the dumb arse ground staff pulled a cover towards the boundary rope and instead of continuing they turned it over 10m in. The umpires then kept looking at the area for another two hours.
Cricket boots have spikes.

If the umpires are waiting for the surface to be perfect before we start.... Newsflash. It's not going to be. Get em back on FFS.
This is pathetic get out their you twats
Cricket really let's itself down
